You can fit zero-inflated versions of either negative binomial or Poisson models with the pscl package; if you need to fit mixed-effect models (e.g. you have some kind of grouping structure, like animals … That was the "tl;dr" version — based on what we've heard so far, I would strongly recommend a zero-inflated model. …

A final consideration: I wonder whether you truly have "zero-inflated" outcome values (deaths per week per institution). … That's not necessarily a "zero-inflated" situation that requires a joint model of 0 and non-0 counts, with potential associated modeling difficulties. …

I want to assess predictive power of zero-inflated negative binomial model in Python. … Moreover, I also try to do similar with zero-inflated Poisson regression. Thanks to comments from Josef, my model can run. …

Moreover, I am thinking that the procedures should be: fit model with all variables -> checking casual relationships -> variables selection (only for traditional modelling: Linear, Poisson, negative binomial … , zero inflated because machine learning algorithms themself do variable selection) -> predictive error assessment. …

Note that "lots of zeros" is not the same as "zero-inflated", e.g. see Warton (2005). … If you fit a zero-inflated model to data that are not zero-inflated, you may get warnings because the zero-inflation will approach zero; this effect is estimated on the logit (log-odds) scale, so the parameter …

I am using the glmmTMB package to run zero-inflated Poisson models. Half the time, these fail to converge and produce a lot of NAs with the estimates. … I've noticed that running the Poisson models without the zero-inflated component yields way less error messages. …

Your problem here is the zeroes, we would usually call this "zero-inflated" and you can search for information on these types of models. … The cpt.meanvar function will fit a Poisson model to each segment and identify the changepoints. …

Once you get back to the original counts and use a generalized linear model with an offset, you thus might not need a zero-inflated or hurdle model for bacterial strains 2 and 3. … If you want to do a comprehensive model of that strain across all inocula, you might need to use a zero-inflated or hurdle model that combines the probability of having any counts with an appropriate model …

Some groups have only zero values which was expected, but unexpected for other groups. Other groups again have some unexpected zero values. Due to the zero values, I cannot use ANOVA test. … I have come to learn that I should therefore instead apply either poisson, negative binomial, zero-inflated poisson or zero-inflated nagative binomial models. …

From previous experiments, I know that my response variable (number of pathogens) can be modelled using a negative binomial and/or a zero-inflated Poisson distribution. … I have two questions, one practical and one theoretical: I have found some academic papers on power analysis for zero-inflated Poisson distributions, but I could not find an R package that would implement …

Notably, Poisson and negative binomial regression are not the only solutions to count modeling. … Sometimes you will have an overabundance of zeroes (where zero-inflated models are useful), extremely skewed distributions (where PIG models tend to sometimes do better), or very complicated distributional …

So you're failing to reject the null hypothesis that the conditional distribution of (non-zero-inflated) counts is geometric. … Let's see what happens if you fit to non-zero-inflated, non-overdispersed data (i.e. simulated Poisson counts): library(pscl) set.seed(101) dd <- data.frame(x=rpois(10000, lambda = 1)) summary(zeroinfl …

The tricky part is testing average revenue per session as we end up with zero-inflated distribution. … Problem is not at all unique, so I found many approaches: hurdle models, zero inflated poisson/negbinomial, two-part model, bootstrapping and bayesian angle. …

I have already tried other methods, including GLMM with poisson distribution, GLMM with ng distribution, Zero-inflated model with ng distribution. …

The true process is a mixture of a Bernoulli process, and a Poisson/negative binomial process.(The typical argument for a zero-inflated model.) … A zero-inflated (or hurdle) model will by design capture the observed proportion of zeros in a process, irrespective of their nature. One way to assess zero-inflation is by using a rootogram. …
